A really funny slapstick comedy with the scenes laid in the studio. The Essanay Company advertises for recruits to appear in a comedy police department. They must qualify by agreeing to do as they are told to do, fall down stairs, jump out of windows, be slammed with eggs, pies, etc. One recruit draws the line on eggs and is fired. To avenge himself he floors the director with a huge mallet. It gains many laughs. - The Moving Picture World, September 26, 1914
